John 12:5-6

5 “Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii ^{▼▼A denarius was a day’s wage for a laborer} and ^bgiven to the poor?” 6 He said this, not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief, and ^chaving charge of the moneybag he used to help himself to what was put into it.

John 13:29

29 Some thought that, ^dbecause Judas had the moneybag, Jesus was telling him, “Buy what we need ^efor the feast,” or that he should ^fgive something to the poor.

Ephesians 4:28

28 Let the thief no longer steal, but rather ^glet him labor, ^hdoing honest work with his own hands, so ⁱthat he may have something to share with anyone in need.
